Criminal Law in Tak — About us

Tak is Thailand's largest western border-trade gateway, through Mae Sot district facing Myawaddy in Myanmar and designated a special economic development zone. The caseload is visibly different from other provinces: customs procedure and seized goods, cross-border trade contracts and debt, migrant labour and work permits, and criminal matters arising out of goods movement.

Customs and seized-goods matters run on short deadlines across stacked layers — the officer stage, the appeal stage, and the court — and taking the wrong layer first is usually unrecoverable. We have run this class of case continuously from our Mekong border-trade base, handle the file from our Khon Kaen head office and Bangkok branch, and travel to appear at the Tak and Mae Sot Provincial Courts.

  • Tak Provincial Court
